A OpenBOM Case Study
EPower Corp, an American and Hong Kong owned contract manufacturer based in Dongguan, China, struggled to manage complex product Bills of Materials (BOMs) and change orders using Excel. This inefficient process led to lost files, excessive emails, and could take up to an hour to implement a single part change, creating significant delays in their later-stage product development and manufacturing for clients.
By implementing OpenBOM, EPower Corp gained a platform to seamlessly manage multiple project BOMs and change orders. The solution from OpenBOM streamlined their development process; once a design change was approved, they could directly insert new drawings and material specs into the BOM. This replaced their error-prone method of sending duplicate files, saving time and ensuring all manufacturing knowledge was kept up-to-date in a single source.
